Manager Comments | VPEG4 portfolio managers continued to build upon their successful prior acquisitions of Alpha-H and Independent Living Specialists ('ILS'). Australian owned and operated, Alpha-H develops and manufactures corrective and preventative skincare products and is a global phenomenon, stocked in over 40 countries including prestige clinics, exclusive day spas, TV shopping networks, cosmetic giant Sephora, department stores Marks & Spencer, Myer and Harvey Nichols and a selection of premium airlines. Alpha-H's expansion into the US market continues to deliver positive signs with strong Direct-to- Customer sales emerging from Alpha-H's Online Channel. ILS is a leading Australian supplier and registered NDIS provider of hospital and home-care equipment. Founded in 2004, ILS has accelerated its growth in recent years by taking advantage of favourable market and government funding conditions to expand both its retail and clinical services divisions. During the period ILS completed the acquisition of Complete Mobility, the second add-on investment since acquisition. Complete Mobility reinforces ILS's presence in Far North Queensland with three regional sites, increases scale in complex rehabilitation and offers both supply and cost synergies to ILS. This acquisition adds to the geographic coverage and product range for this key segment of the market. Vantage's pipeline of Private Equity investment opportunities remains strong and expects the VPEG4 portfolio to continue to grow in value across 2021. Please note that performance for the Vantage Private Equity Funds composite is updated quarterly. |
